Really good food great service relaxing and great atmosphere

User

Nipped in tonight to pick up a quick takeaway pasta between after school care and dancing for my daughter to quickly eat in the car. Quick explanation and the staff were very kind and showed us to a table, got my daughter's spaghetti Bolognese on and served asap. Not only that we were offered the kids meal deal with drink and a scoop of ice cream at a really good price. Noy once did we feel awkward or like anything was too much hassle. This is the kind of thing that makes a mum's crazy schedule just that bit easier and I really thank you for that. I can vouch the bolognese and ice cream were both amazing! Very impressed.

User

Minetrone is the best ever, everything else on the menu is well cooked and tasty.

Been here many times and we'll be back, food is fantastic, staff are brill and a great relaxed atmosphere.

User

Lovely food. For me to big portions but very tasty. Coffee amazing. Definitely come back again.

User

I have been coming here for nearly 18 years on and off be it for a coffee or a panini for lunch.



Over the last 2 years it has became my favourite establishment in Glasgow for a more casual delicious dining experience.



The staff are attentive, the owners are always in the place putting in a hard graft and the food is to die for, generous in portion, great presentation, well seasoned and varied. Kudos to the chef!



Frequently have new specials, as much as I would always happily eat the amazing carbonara, the most recent mouthwatering special was a kind of black pudding risotto with a poached egg and holloandaise sauce ( it sounds better in it Italian ). One of the best things I have ever eaten, and as a fat guy with adventurous tastebuds I have tried a lot! Get that on the main menu please!!



Wine is good value too!



As the wife and I usually get a starter and main only, I cannot comment on the dessert, but the display looks amazing, just too full to attempt any!



Already looking forward to our next visit.

User

I go here regularly for breakfast, coffee and lunch and it's always exceptional. This time we had fungi crostini which was to die for and we ended up ordering a second portion.

User

Had gotten takeout stuff from the deli before which was always excellent (the first place I've found that does veggie lasagne properly!) but had always meant to sit in some time. Went for breakfast & had Italian toast with scramble egg & cheese. Best scrambled eggs I've had in a very long time and lovely coffee too. Will definitely get in for an actual meal soon.

User

Great place to come for light bite or full-on hearty meal. Traditional Italian fayre never fails to impress (and so much better than other Italian style 'chain' restaurants). Staff are always so helpful and polite and attentive. Despite being such a busy place, we have always been squeezed in when required. Don't forget the adjoining deli counter for all your true authentic Italian take away needs! As our kids like to say about Bella Fresca, "it's amazing!"

User

User

User

Unimpressed....



I have just left Bella Fresca and feel compelled to write a review. I visited with my friend and young son and the experience was painful.



- dining area is far too cramped. Couldn't manoeuvre the buggy around the tables, had to find a spot to store the buggy completely without direction or assistance from staff, we were practically sat on top of other diners surrounding us. Very uncomfortable.



- despite offering a child menu, this place is not suitable for young children. The layout of tables and tightness of it all made it quite dangerous to be with a squirming toddler.



- service was non existent following the order being taken. Waited 15 minutes for a can of juice to be served. My friend jokingly went to the bar to retrieve the drink that had been left there to be served. I went to the bar area to order something else and was ignored. We had to purposefully grab the attention of our server just to order.



- wasn't offered the drink or ice-cream advertised with the kid's meal. Couldn't even get the attention of the server to ask for it.



- food was cooked well but took a very long time to be served. Multiple diners around us were complaining too.



- coffee served in a glass - WHYYYYYY? This is just a personal annoyance of mine. Coffee belongs in a cup.



Such a shame. Won't return.
